Sexualy: Gay.

Gay.

If you’ve watched as much LGBT cema as me, you would know two thgs for sure: you’re fely gay, and gay g-of-age dramas n often be very, well, dramatic. But the lovely Brazilian film The Way He Looks, the protagonist’s homosexualy is not an overwrought plot pot, and more notably, neher is the fact that he is bld. Like sayg your drk is empty so you n leave an awkward nversatn or pretendg you were too dnk to remember a gay moment (actually that’s not jt rerved for high school, OKAY).
